Mr. Kunz, thanks for the reply and try to not get stung too much by the stones. :) xda-developers is full of enthusiasts. It is easy to criticize the article 2 years down the road, but if it had been worded a little less aggressively I think your points are still valid. Perhaps "3 reasons why Google Android could fail"

1) Hardware does matter, just not as much as it used to. The G1 is not perfect and battery life is definitely not good. These things do matter and I am sure they affect sales. I purchased the G1 specifically for android and in that I have been happy so far. The second an android phone with a better hardware build (squeaky screen) comes out I will be relegating the G1 to my phone drawer.

2) The MS factor. In the past WinMo has always been a slow rollout to new versions and it was a comparative rarity that older phones would get the update. You can never count MS out, they have massive resources and tie-ins with the most popular desktop operating systems but.... MS is not an "agile" company, and I am not sure slow and ponderous will work against the iPhone and Android.

3) I agree with your 3rd point as a potential pitfall. The iPhone is a danger to Android's long term success. There is enough room for all 3 (iPhone, Android, and WinMo) though. The G1 has a different, in my opinion currently smaller, target market. It has a higher "geek appeal" right now, but with current hardware is not a trend setter.

The G1 has been a success by most measures but not a home run. Really what android is banking on is not what the OS can do now but what it can potentially do with a bit more development. if it were a smaller company behind Android I would be more worried about its chance at long term success. But, much like MS, Google can afford to throw resources at it for quite a while as long as it furthers their long term goal.
[G1 General] CBowley:
I think what some people are failing to realize is that with Android, EVERYTHING is fixable. So if the camera app sucks, someone could make an app for it instead of waiting for an ota that address' the issue. That alone makes this os more powerful than iphone or winmo.
[G1 General] CBowley:
Not only that, but ANY carrier and ANY phone can run Android and customize it how they see fit. Where the IPhone has 1 phone and 1 carrier. WinMo is also on may carriers/phones but the difference is that Android is open, where WinMo cost more to put on phones.

Hey there,

you might remember the famous sentence of your parents "Boy you shall read more"! :p

What about a page in the XDA-wikipedia with a listing of all PDA friendly pages available, categorized by

a) linklists like http://www.molipo.mobi/ or http://cantoni.mobi/

b) countries/languages

etc etc?

What do you think?

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] dkwalsh:
Hi there

I'm a newbie and wondering how much I'm missing out on by sticking with the stock ROM my HD came with. Could I be experiencing better, faster performance, improved features, etc, etc with a cooked ROM, or are the differences actually pretty marginal and just for those who really enjoy modifying and customising their device?

I know I will lose my ability to call up HTC and complain if something goes wrong with my HD whilst I keep the original ROM, so I'm just trying to gauge whether the benefits of changing to a cooked ROM are worth it. I don't see myself changing ROMs a lot, but I'd love better performance and there are quite a few features of original software that bother me.

Thanks for any advice!

Daniel

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
In my experience cooked roms are cooked so they are better, more stable, have less issues & bugs, have faster performances & improved features. Thats the whole point, plus you can always revert back to stock rom anytime you want as all are available to download from the wiki
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] superste2201:
cooked roms are alot better imho, obviously depends which 1 you go for, a lite 1 will make your phone alot faster, some are feature-packed and so on.

I am currently using a cooked rom but if ever i needed to return to HTC i will put original rom on it. :p
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Cooked is definitely the way to go. Especially if you run one of the many roms available from our own great chefs here at XDA. They are always more stable and way faster than stock roms. Plus, if you are worried about warranty and such, it is always completely reversible :D

You have to at least try one! If you need information on how to do it look at the guide in my signature or read the wiki. Cheers!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] gfreek:
A long time ago a galaxy far far away, I too was a purist always stuck with stock ROM but one day I woke up and smelled the coffee and jumped ship since then I have never looked back! cooked rom is the way to go!:D. yes you may get one rotten apple but that doesnt mean the rest are bad far from it! I have been flashing rom's back and forth since my TyTN days and I can tell you this much, HTC or any other OEM could a learn a thing or two from the fine Chefs that have graced their presence in XDA over the last couple of years!!

As they say "don't be shy give it try or you will never know"!!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] dkwalsh:
Well, I'm convinced. Thanks for the opinions, and here goes....!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ehsanij:
well this is only one way only once you flashed the cooked ROM then you have to continuously flash it as long as it is continued, means you will be addicted and you have to flash each new ROM that comes out, so your device will become the lab for testing new ROMs :), any how you will like it that way.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] core7x:
im agree wit it....

especially when u flash, try to find a most suitable ROM for your usage....

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] nizzon:
Same here.

Im waiting for a cooked WM 6.5 based on an original release.

Wasnt WM 6.5 supposed to be officially released yesterday on Microsofts TechED?

Cant find anything about it on the net...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] anssibragge:
I only have experience with duttys 2.x and Miri's roms since 5.x

Dutty has wm6.1, miri wm6.5 as the base, I personally like to have the newest stuff... :)

Dutty has a lot of stuff packed together which is also quite nice, but.. like I said, I rather go with the newer stuff. Miri's rom is not too barebones (hasn't ripped everything possible away, which could cause instability), the ROM has not crashed once - I like the miri 10.0 premium running on my HD at the moment.

Oh yes, I also had problems with dutty's data connections, for some reason it kept cutting my irc session in a couple of minutes. It was a pity, because the selection of already included apps was nice. And has gotten nicer all the time.

Well, others can tell about the other ROMs, I don't have *that* much interest in just toying around with all possible ROMs.

The decision to try miri's rom as my first wm6.5 was based solely on the fact that his thread on the forum had at most postings :-D

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Yes, it will probably be some time yet before device manufacturers begin rolling it out with their hardware...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ehsanij:
For me memory management is very important i have tested all the roms and flashed all the new roms till now Miri's rom is the best for me it is fast and hardly you reach to 50% of memory usage with tons of software installed, i know lots of people likes duty's rom but for me when i load it easily it reached above 50% of memory then after using gps and other heavy applications it reaches up to 90% that makes the device unstable, that was my opinion
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] stephencwl:
Cooked ROM Vs Stock ROM:

Faster: Agree

Improved features: Agree

Better: Depends on the quality of the cooked ROM

More Stable: Not for most of the time

Less Issues and Bugs: Not really the case

But flashing cooked ROM is really fun and addictive. However, I usually end up flashing back to a tweaked stocked ROM for daily use.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] dkwalsh:
Well, I just installed Dutty's 3.3 ROM, and I have to say that so far it is so much better than the stock one. He's fixed a bunch of things that had been giving me the sh1ts about the original one.

Now I'm tempted to see what Miri's 10 is also like...damn, I'm hooked!

hello there, this forum is great and it helped me a lot, but now i have again a problem:

I'm using an acer aspire laptop (without bluetooth) so i recently bought a Bluetooth usb dongle... and now i would love to connect my HD via bluetooth to my laptop using activesync, but I've some problems...

the situation on my laptop:

the bluetooth dongle installed successfully and is working (I can send and receive files via bluetooth)

the situation on my HD:

it detects my laptop and connects to it very well but when i try to connect via bluetooth in the activesync progg (on my HD) it gives me an error:

(I have a dutch device so i will try to translate the message)

"Could not find an existing bluetooth connection with a pc that supports activesync. would you like to create one?"

"Yes" -- "No"

if i click no it closes the message.

And when i click yes it redirects me to the bluetooth settings (then i go to the devices tab and there i find my laptop when i tap on it, it opens the settings and in the list i see activesync checked)

so whats the problem ... or what do i wrong

can some one please help me ... please i need it,

or better is there an alternative activesync... (already searched the web but no results)

A BIG THAANXZ TO ALL OF YOU

sorry for my bad English

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] anoniem:
oke now i am sure... it's the HTC's fault , cause i tried to connect my HTC Apache (with an older rom.. and an older version of activesync mobile) via bluetooth and it worked like a charm!

[first connected it with usb cable to set up a profile then disconnected it.

opened activsync (on mobile) Menu -> connect via bluetooth -> set a new partnership -> found the pc and connected ! ]

but with the touch hd it says that there are no pc's that support a bluetooth connection via activesync...

so does any one has a cab for activesync (an older version or a newer that works)

(or cloud some one tell me how to get the activesync (cab) on the appach and then install it on the htc)

thaanxz

why is there no response? is it so difficult?

[XPERIA X1 General] barabos:
Hi,

I've been searching for hours but cannot find information on this topic, which doesn't fill me with hope.

Yesterday my x1 froze when trying to send a text. I managed to get back to the today screen and end the messaging task but I could not access this again. So i restarted my phone, but now it only gets as far as the sony ericsson logo, and freezes. I can only remove the battery or hit the soft reset switch under the cover.

I have tried leaving it off, leaving it on, starting without the sim card, without the memory card, even going as far as the hard reset option screen then cancelling hoping to kick it into action.

When connected to my pc while off, my pc detected it and installed some drivers, but activesync cannot connect to the phone.

I can get into the update mode by holding the volume down button, and it appears i can update the software through the sony ericsson service, but I will lose all contact, calendar, etc. data.

My other option is a hard reset, also losing important contact info. For some insane reason, while I backed up everything when transferring data from my old phone to this one, I never got round to setting up a regular backup from this one. A mistake I will not be repeating soon.

Is there any way I can get the data from the phone? It seems to start up to a point, as well as is able to update the software so I assume it is possible to download the data from the phone somehow?

Failing that, if I do a hard reset or update the software, then is there any way to retrieve the lost contact information?

Any help would be much appreciated.
[XPERIA X1 General] nokiaman1978:
Have you stored all contact info onto your phone, what about your sim contacts are stored onto sim by default i think so an update or a hard reset will not make any difference at the info will just be read from the sim.
[XPERIA X1 General] Firefall!:
I've had exactly this problem too when I turned on WLAN once. Phone blocked, after reboot it stays at the logo. I've spent 5 desperate hours trying to rescue it but I failed. Hardresetted. No idea why this is happening or how to solve the problem; just blame Sony Ericsson, they're ****ers.
[XPERIA X1 General] barabos:
Thanks for the replies, sadly the info is not on the sim. In order to organise the contact list I transferred them all to the handset and then deleted them off the sim in order to not show duplicates. Could not find a way to do that without deleting them.

Hi there in this forum,

searched for VoIP, I found several "How-To's" for activating VoIP in Windows Mobile 6, e.g.:

[GUIDE] How to configure VoIP/SIP client in WM6. - xda-developers

VOIP software...Whats the latest now? - xda-developers

VOIP in WM61, done! - xda-developers

Which one is working for Diamond 2?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] christonge:
FIRST use the first guide (How to configure...) to set up your SIP settings cab and then...

1. Install the following attached VOIP cab

2. Install your SIP settings cab.

3. Soft reset your device

4. Open Phone then menu, then options, then you will see a tab labelled Internet. Click and here you can select when to activate Internet calling.

Working great on my TD2 :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Tatsch:
Thank you for your reply.

I don't have a "SIP settings cab", I have data (server, username ...) to type in manually. Necessary instead of your step 2, I assume?

Good news! No problems with the first guide? The thread sounds terrible meanwhile.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] christonge:
Yeah you need to set up your SIP cab and install... but it's pretty easy with the tutorial given in that guide. If you have problems then PM me.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Tatsch:
Thank you again, will try it net days.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] oruam57:
Done on my TD2 too and it works (I'm using VOIP buster).

The before call screen is perfect (the operator name changes to VOIP Buster from my original 3G Wind) but there are (tolerable) problems with the call phone screen:

- operator name reverts to cellular one (but the call is positively made through VOIP Buster)

- there is an overlapping with called name from the contacts (red marks are mine, for privacy)

- the "shade cover" is missing

Do you have similar problems?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] jerrry:
I have problem on my Diamond2, I was created the cab with my VoIP settings, but after installation there is no file Prov0SIPSettings in /Windows/System/VoIP directory :-( I was checked my _setup.xml many times and there is all ok, the problem why the file isn´t created must be somewhere else.

Is there any other sollution how to use VoIP on my Diamond2? For example with SIP Config tool? Thank you for any help.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] christonge:
Yep I noticed that on the 1.39 ROM but don't have it now on the newer 1.40... so you'll have it fixed soon once the Hard SPL is out :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] oruam57:
Using VOIP.cab as above I had VOIP working on my Diamond2. The usual problem was sound on the speakerphone instead of earpiece where it should be.
